At the end of August, Megan & Justin brought their three girls and horses to WaKeeney for a horse show. It is a well-known fact that if there are family horses in the area then Chloe wants to be there!
Since one of the horses is EXTREMELY kid-friendly Chloe got to ride all day long. I'm not sure she got off the horse more than one hour each day of the horse show. She loved it. She was in control and got to go wherever she wanted in the parking lot.

Chloe even got to ride in Figure 8 with Papa!
Papa walked along, then they decided that they could let Goble trot.
Papa kept up and they jogged to the far stake.
After rounding the far stake, Papa pointed to the first stake so they could execute the proper figure-8 pattern. Well Goble didn't acknowledge the pointing to the other stake, he assumed it was a signal to head home. Off he went--headed to the finish line!
"So-long, Papa!"
Goble was stopped at the end of the arena by another dad, and Chloe was perfectly fine. Everyone the next day told her they could see her smiling the whole time Goble galloped to the finish line. Chloe loved every bit of it and is so proud that she galloped in a horse show event. It didn't even matter that she didn't complete the course!
There are videos below, but of course I had stopped the video to take a still-shot when Goble took off. So the second video continues after he is headed home!
